GBBO cake collapses during last night’s Bake Off

Great British Bake Off fans had a lot of questions during vegan week, after Ruby Bhogal’s showstopper was captured collapsing on camera as the bakers left the tent.

It all came crashing down for Ruby when the top tier of the beautifully decorated lemon and coconut cake slipped off just moments after the challenge ended.

Ruby and her fellow bakers could be seen watching outside of the tent and gasping in horror as the events unfolded, with Noel Fielding and Sandi Toksvig quickly comforting her over the cake catastrophe.

However, GBBO fans were sceptical over the scenes, with some pointing out that viewers almost never see the bakers leaving the tent and others sharing their thoughts on the ‘perfectly timed’ filming.

“Can we talk about that weird Bake Off scene for a second? We never see them after a challenge has ended, we only see them during the judging. Why were they all watching outside? Do cameras normally keep running? Why was Ruby with Noel and Sandi? This feels quite weird. #GBBO,” posted one person on Twitter.

And another mused: “Noo Ruby! Do they normally leave the tent? Very convenient /excellent camera shot with the bakers in the background.”
